Summary: The War to End All Wars?
Comment: Every time one thinks that the level of evil to which the military-industrial-corporate media can stoop has been reached, along comes more information to tell us we haven't yet reached that level.
Authors Kaku and Axelrod have produced a book written in the style I enjoy the most--using the government's own primary source documents to impeach them.
They document the insanity of our fathers using their own words to pitch them upon their own pitards.
The volume contains quotes from hitherto secret NSC and Joint Chiefs of Staff documents outlining the insantiy, the ends of destruction to which cold war warriors could go to "win" a war with the Soviet Union, or anyone else who dared to stand in the way of American imperialism.
Fast forward to the "first strike" of Bush against Iraq. In reading this volume, one can easily find that cold war warriors of the past developed the "first strike" and that Bush and Company have taken advantage of them to establish a Pax Americana by force ofarms to make the Middle East safe for both Israel and American oil and multi-national corporate interests.
The authors trace the development of American foreign policy clearly demonstrating to the reader how "crisis" utilized the twin principles of cold war policy development--escalation dominance and first strike--to achieve the goals of American foreign policy--making the world safe for their brand of "freedom."
The book traces the evolution of how, in at least a dozen episodes, foreign policy planners used the threat of America's nuclear monopoly to achieve its ends. In contrast to the official party line spewed forth by the corporate media, a series of plans were developed all predicated on the insane notion of "winnig" a nuclear war.
"To Win A Nuclear War" is the kind of book to keep at your side when some lard ass flag waver talks about using nuclear weapons for any purpose. If we learn nothing else from history, we should learn that no war is really winnable. Americans are all too eager to inflict this sort of damage as long as it is NIMBY.

Summary: The Perestroika Deception
Comment: In 1961, KGB defector Anitoliy Golitsyn told of a 40 year strategic deception plan to disarm the West in preparation for the final conquest of Communism. According to the plan, after an arms race, insurgent operatives would orchestrate mass peace movements while at the same time the USSR and ilk would engage in a final orgy of overt arms build up. Reagan served this all very well and when he "won" the Cold War, it must have been beyond the late Khrushchev's wildest dreams. Then came the "great fall" of 1989 - 1991, predicted by Golitsyn well prior (all according to plan.) Now the West are at their weakest and a restive Russia talks of restoration of the USSR whilst feigning cooperation in the "War on Terror." I sincerely hope the Pentagon has a plan for winning a nuclear war because today the odds are against us. We must start rearming immediately!

Summary: So why didn't it happen?
Comment: Between 1945 and the mid 1970s, the U.S./U.S.S.R nuclear relationship went from America having total superiority, to the Soviet Union achieving nuclear parity (some would say dominance in number of warheads and megatonnage). So why didn't the blood thirsty and irresponsible Americans "GO FOR IT"? Why not do it even during such tempting opportunities as the Berlin Airlift, 1947, the Hungarian Uprising, 1956, the Cuban Missile Crisis, 1961? What held U.S. leaders back as they saw the Soviets closing the gap and then overtaking them? This book offers no new ideas. It is only the same old re-hashed liberal speak.
